A navis lusoria (from Latin dancing/playful ship, plural naves lusoriae) is a type of a small military vessel of the late Roman Empire that served as a troop transport. It was powered by about thirty soldier-oarsmen and an auxiliary sail. Nimble, graceful, and of shallow draft, such a vessel was used on northern rivers close to the Limes Germanicus, the Germanic border, and thus saw service on the Rhine and the Danube. The Roman historian Ammianus Marcellinus mentioned the navis lusoria in his writings, but not much about it could be learned until the discovery of such boats at Mainz, Germany in 1981–82.

  • Als Navis lusoria (lateinisch; wörtlich „spielerisches/tänzerisches Schiff“; Plural naves lusoriae) wird ein römischer Kriegsschifftyp der Spätantike bezeichnet. Lusoriae waren schlanke und flachgehende Ruderboote, die von etwa dreißig Ruderern angetrieben wurden, die in einer Ebene saßen. Zusätzlich konnte ein Mast getakelt werden. (de)
